Seahorse family. Distress Crayons, Collage Medium and stamps by Ryn.

Hi.
Been playing with my art journal and the new Distress Crayons and Distress Collage Medium, crazing.
Love the effect.


Dug out the fusible fibres and fantasy film, iron, parchment paper, and sharpies to make the seahorse family with Designs by Ryn stamps.
Made them colourful.
Even gave them punk hair.


Added all-sorts of stuff, bubble wrap, tulle, waste off hessian and a few sequins.
All created on a piece of cardboard with distress crayons. 


The background stamp is bubbles set from Designs by Ryn


Its been a lovely day today, so took the photos in the garden, shame about the shadow at the top, never mind.
Hope you like the page, getting into journaling now.

    1. Hi Joyce, the seahorses have been made by, inking the stamp by Ryn with Archival ink, pressing fusible film onto, then the fibres, another layer of film, parchment paper then iron until the image can be seen.use a ball tool over the film still on stamp to give the shaping. cut out the seahorse then added extra colour with sharpies.
      Hope that makes sense.
      thanks for your comment.

    2. HMM not sure but I think so. I have the film but not the fibers...where do you get them? I LOVE doing different things with rubber stamps LOL. I made an embellie using gel and paint if you'd like to see http://paperfinesse.blogspot.com/2016/03/under-sea.html
